Is there any option yet to be able to scale the picture? My tv's overscan doesn't save so I am missing maybe an inch from all alround the screen. I was just wondering if the HR20 has an option to scale. Thanks.

The HR's do not have the ability to adjust for your TV's over/under scan. Some sets do have a user accessible adjustment.

Yea mine doesn't on HDMI, only on the PC input. Hopefully in one of these updates they will add the option to scale the picture. Thanks.

I would be holding my breath for this option to come.
"I'd bet" you will find the overscan adjustment in your service menu.

Overscan/underscan is a display activity.

It is there. On my tv it doesn't stick. So when I turn the tv off it turns itself off. To much hassle to go into the service menu change it, turn off the tv and turn it back on again every time.

Might want to check and see if there is a firmware update for your TV. Definitely sounds like a bug with your TV.

The last time I was in a service menu, before I exited it, I needed to "save" the settings for it "to stick". Without doing so, simply powering down the set would revert the settings back to the last saved settings.

And be careful in the service menu! On some TVs if you choose the wrong settings or mess something up you can brick your TV. No joke.

There isn't one. The TV is three years old.

Yea my TV saves it automatically but it is a known bug with it.
